Chapter 1889: Immortal Astral’s tenth sun, Severed Palm!! (Second Update)
While Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate was recovering, Wang Lin, in the boundless land within the black hole Vortex at the bottom of the sea, severed the face's neck with a single slash.
The instant that slash landed, the face let out an earth-shattering roar and turned around completely, but then, before Wang Lin, it crumbled and disintegrated layer by layer, turning into a cloud of dust that vanished into the seawater.
Blood dripped from the connection between Wang Lin's right hand and the Bone Yin Blade. Amidst the immense pain in Wang Lin's right hand, the Bone Yin Blade slowly contracted, eventually disappearing completely into his right arm.
Wang Lin had unleashed his full power in the previous slash, and he was now exhausted. Especially his right arm's Bone Yin Blade, it felt as if it was on the verge of collapsing from the recoil.
"Going to Seal me?" Wang Lin panted. Despite his high cultivation, he was as normal in this seawater as he would be anywhere else. His breath escaped his mouth, forming rising bubbles, yet no seawater entered. Instead, the tiny breathable substances contained within the seawater were inhaled by him.
He looked back at the layers of Seals on the Mountain Sea Tree. This Seal had not been broken by Wang Lin's previous slash. Now, the ripples on it gradually dispersed, subtly returning to normal.
His gaze flickered. Wang Lin was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, while checking his internal injuries, he also estimated the remaining time for his Soul Armor. Due to several full-power activations earlier, the Soul Armor's duration had drastically decreased, and now only about half an incense stick's time remained.
"It's enough!" After his breathing stabilized, Wang Lin swayed and shot upwards. His speed was so great that in an instant, he appeared beside the black hole Vortex, plunged in, left the true depths of the seabed, and emerged into the Mountain Sea's waters above.
The moment he exited the black hole, a Sea Dragon swiftly approached from above. Seeing Wang Lin, it immediately roared with surprise in its eyes and quickly came closer. Wang Lin nodded slightly, then took the Sea Dragon and headed straight upwards.
He had already sensed that the Body Fixing Art on Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate had lost its effect.
Almost at the instant Wang Lin rapidly ascended, a gnashing voice echoed through the seawater.
"Wang Lin!!!" With that voice, the originally deep blue seawater immediately turned black. In front of Wang Lin, the blackness was even denser, like ink. Inside, massive tentacles thrashed, causing the seawater to form one Vortex after another, heading straight for Wang Lin.
"Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate, you are no match for me now. We have no enmity, and this Mountain Sea Tree Spirit is not your private possession. If you continue to pester me, do not blame me for being ruthless!" Wang Lin's expression was calm. He controlled the Sea Dragon to avoid the black seawater, flashed past, and headed straight for the surface of the sea.
"This entire Mountain Sea is my Immortal Cave, Hai Zi Yiting's. How can you come and go as you please!! Mountain Sea Array!!" Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate's real name was Yiting, but because she had spent years in this Mountain Sea and achieved the Dao here, becoming a Heavenly Venerate, she was known as Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate among those on the Heavenly Venerate level, just as Wang Lin was called White-haired Heavenly Venerate!
As she spoke, almost all the surrounding seawater turned black, especially above and below the surface, forming a solidified ink-like substance, like dried ink!
This solidified ink was extremely sturdy, sealing off most of the Mountain Sea. If one were to look down from high above the sea surface, the boundless Mountain Sea appeared like a vast black land, incredibly solid!
Within the seawater, Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate's figure suddenly materialized. Her octopus sea beast roared beneath her, being the first to charge out, heading straight for the Sea Dragon beneath Wang Lin.
It hated that Sea Dragon to its core. As it charged out, its roars vibrated the seawater, forming numerous echoing ripples. The Sea Dragon's fierce eyes flashed, and it likewise roared, charging directly forward to fight with the octopus sea beast amidst their mutual roars.
The struggle and battle between these two sea beasts caused the seawater to rumble like thunder, emitting violent fluctuations and roars.
At the same time, the exquisitely beautiful Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate stared intently at Wang Lin and took a step forward. She didn't exactly hate Wang Lin; on the contrary, in their battle three years ago, she had a somewhat deep impression of him, but that was all. Her heart felt no ripples, as if they were strangers who had met by chance.
After Wang Lin's defeat in that battle, Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate had dismissed the matter. But now, it was vastly different. When Wang Lin reappeared three years later, with a single finger, she was actually immobilized for more than ten breaths!
This was simply unacceptable to her, and extremely infuriating! One must know that even as a Heavenly Venerate, she was still a female cultivator, a woman being forcefully immobilized there, utterly helpless to resist. This feeling made her quite ashamed and angry!
In her original thoughts, although the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit could condense Wood Origin, it wasn't of much use to her. If Wang Lin had humbled himself and asked her, then out of consideration for them both being Heavenly Venerates, she might have given Wang Lin a few.
But Wang Lin, whether three years ago or three years later, always maintained an indifferent demeanor. This point made the exquisitely beautiful Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate deliberately make things difficult for him.
Her cultivation was profound, and her status was noble. Apart from a limited number of Sky-Leaping Heavenly Venerates, she barely regarded ordinary cultivators. It was precisely because of her noble status that she could occupy the entire Mountain Sea without anyone interfering or provoking her.
But she never expected that she would be immobilized there for more than ten breaths!
Facing Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate's approach, Wang Lin frowned. His Soul Armor's time was limited, and he truly didn't want to waste too much time with this Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate. But if this woman kept pestering him, he wouldn't mind severely injuring her with the fastest speed!
He snorted coldly at this moment. The instant Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate approached, Wang Lin took a step forward. With this step, ninety-seven afterimages appeared around him, heading straight for Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate.
Upon nearing, Wang Lin suddenly raised his right hand and slammed a palm towards Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate!
The moment his palm was raised, ninety-seven afterimages around him simultaneously raised their right palms. Through Fusion, ninety-eight Spirit Command Seals materialized with a roar, forming a massive palm print in front of Wang Lin, heading straight for Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate.
Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate gritted her silver teeth, raised her jade hand, and waved it forward. Immediately, a blue light spread over her right hand, transforming into a massive bell. The bell rapidly expanded, emitting a sharp shriek from within. A blue bird materialized from the bell, flapping its wings seventy times consecutively, instantly imbued with seventy Divine Abilities, heading straight for Wang Lin's Spirit Command Seal.
As the blue bird flew out, Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate also raised her jade hand and pointed forward.
"My Destiny is My Own First Dao!" As Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate pointed with her jade hand, an oval-shaped mark appeared in front of her. The mark was composed of seventy strokes, clearly containing her seventy Divine Abilities!
"Heaven Does Not Defy Second Dao!" Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate gritted her teeth, her beautiful face somewhat pale. As she raised her right hand, blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, clearly indicating that this technique was extremely difficult for her to activate!
As she spoke, the oval-shaped mark suddenly expanded. The seventy strokes contained within it immediately split into twenty-six, doubling in number, and merged with the original seventy strokes, forming ninety-six!
These ninety-six strokes, equivalent to the Fusion of ninety Divine Abilities, formed an oval-shaped mark that contained an astonishing aura, heading straight for Wang Lin.
Wang Lin's Spirit Command Seal directly collided with the blue bird. Amidst rumbling sounds, the blue bird disintegrated, reverting into a bell that recoiled and bounced away. The remaining Spirit Command Seal roared forth, but the instant it touched the oval-shaped mark, the Spirit Command Seal silently disintegrated!
"What kind of Divine Ability is this!!" Wang Lin's pupils contracted. The oval-shaped mark gave him an immense sense of crisis. As it approached, Wang Lin, without hesitation, raised both hands, bending his body backward like a drawn bow. Ninety-seven afterimages materialized outside his body, moving in unison, as if they were all forcefully ramming their heads forward!
"Heavenly Ox Ram!"
The Heavenly Ox Divine Ability, which had once astonished the Dao Demon Sect's Old Ancestor Heavenly Venerate, reappeared. These ninety-seven afterimages, along with Wang Lin's main body, instantly transformed into a massive Heavenly Ox body, using its two enormous horns, imbued with ninety-eight Divine Abilities, to charge straight towards the oval-shaped mark.
While Wang Lin and Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate were battling in this Mountain Sea with its solidified surface, in the deep seabed, within the black hole that Wang Lin had previously blasted open, at the location of the Mountain Sea Tree.
At this moment, an extremely bizarre change was rapidly coalescing.
Beside the Mountain Sea Tree, outside the layers of Seals, at the spot where the face that Wang Lin had previously severed and disintegrated had vanished, specks of faint light now materialized. These faint lights exuded a frantic ferocity and bloodlust, and an even more terrifying aura that could make one's heart tremble.
However, this aura was very strange; it didn't emit even a trace, nor was it detected by Wang Lin and Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate who were battling outside the black hole.
Amidst the faint rumbling sounds from above, the number of these faint specks here grew, and in a short while, they were densely packed, almost no less than a hundred thousand. They merged one by one, completely coalescing together in a short period.
It didn't form the previous face, but rather a severed palm!
Only a palm, no arm, hence called a severed palm!!!
This severed palm was originally enormous, a hundred zhang in size, but after forming, it rapidly shrank, eventually becoming like an ordinary person's hand. Its entire body was not faint, but transparent. If one didn't look carefully, it would be very difficult to see clearly.
Within its palm, there seemed to be a faint mark, indistinct.
"Discovered, not a Spirit of Immortal Astral, Seal it!!" A blurry voice came from within the severed palm. With a flicker, the surrounding seawater rippled, and the severed palm shot upwards!
At this moment, Wang Lin and Hai Zi Heavenly Venerate, engaged in battle, neither of them had the slightest awareness of the appearance and arrival of this severed palm within the black hole at the bottom of the sea!!
The second update is delivered, one more chapter to go!
